Virtualization live migration

As Im sure you know Hyper V R2 with live migration isn't due out for production until 2010. Well long story short, I need to implement a solution that will do the same thing now. Currently we run a single Hyper V server with no San, we are ordering another server, and a 4TB pro logic SAN. I know I can set it up to migrate, but I need it to do this on its own with no downtime.
I was looking at VMWare, and if I see the prices correctly, it is out of the question, not to mention I would like to stick with Hyper V. I am open to 3rd party add ons that would make this happen until R2 gets released.
I would also like to look at the option of having a 3rd fail over to a data center, so basically if the building burned down then the VM's would fail over to the data center.

If you are looking for a free solution I'd suggest VitualBOX now is a Subsidy of Sun Microsystems. I've been using it from the very beginning. I had my enough experience with Microsoft's Never-running Virtual-Server and suggested it to several askers under several occasions.

Highfive is so simple that setting up every meeting room takes just minutes and every employee will be able to start or join a call from any room with ease. Never be called into a meeting just to get it started again. This is how video conferencing should work!

If you're looking at VMWAre take a look at their Foundation licensing which is designed for smaller environments and has a lower cost then the standard or enterprise versions. It is by far the most robust solution out there right now.
